Still can get double gifts in Farmville, English Countryside, and More Glitches

Make sure you accept all of your gifts in the Farmville screen FIRST! Then go to the Facebook Games link to accept them again! Update 3.25.11 - YOU CAN NO LONGER GET DOUBLE GIFTS. THIS GLITCH HAS BEEN FIXED...BUMMER!!!

Ran into a strange glitch yesterday. Tried to put a sign near my character that says: "It's so hard to farm in this outfit but every time I hit the "F" key, I went into full screen mode. I ended up saying: "It's just so hard to work in this getup!" My avatar is wearing a British Flag minidress with white platform boots. haha! (Click to enlarge)

People are complaining that their crops stop growing in their original farms when they leave the game in their English farm. I agree!! I am sure Zynga's developers will find a workaround for this and make it some big announcement with teasers like they did the English Countryside. After all, they heard our storage complaints and gave us storage cellars. (Click to enlarge)
I am confused about the chickens though. I got this really large white chicken on my English Farm but when I opened up a white egg, I got a regular-sized white chicken. Hmmm. (not something you want your Dr. to say. lol)

I love the sheep breeding. I will be working on a sheep breeding guide so send me your sheep results either via Facebook - Ari Red or via this blog (as a comment). It seems there will be thousands of types.

Lastly, I bought a Clydesdale Stallion for my English Countryside horse stall. Remember, we need stallions to breed our horses. Stallions are not offered very often so it's worth the Farmville cash spent - at least I hope it is. (Click to enlarge)

  1. It still works for me. Been doing it all day. Sometimes the gift does not appear in the game center, but most of the time it still works. I remember when it was a lot easier to accept double gifts. I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed it as well. It was around the time during the christmas 2010 event when I clicked the game center and noticed I had over 300 gifts in my queue (even tho I had already accepted them previously in the drop down menu) so I decided to accept them again and surely enough it worked. Now though, I think they've caught on and made it more difficult to accept it twice, but i've still been getting around it

  2. I think Zynga must have to handle each account (or group of accounts) separately. I noticed that some people still can while others cannot.

  3. The method I have always used to get double gifts is to refresh the screen after accepting it from facebook requests. I just confirmed that this still works as of the date of this comment.

  4. Nice! Michael, are you accepting the Facebook requests from the Farmville screen or the Games link on the left on the main Facebook screen?

  6. From facebook requests: http://www.facebook.com/reqs.php

    Click on the accept button, then refresh the page. A second refresh (third drawing of the screen) will show an error page.
